According to a fatality crash summary, the driver of a Toyota was northbound when they attempted to pass a vehicle in front of them and collided head-on with an oncoming Subaru.
A Chevrolet SUV that was behind the Subaru then hit the rear of the Toyota.
The crash killed two of the drivers, William Mesa and Candace Vassalluzzo, both of whom were wearing their seat belts.
The other driver and a passenger were not injured in the crash.
The summary says it was raining and the highway was wet at the time of the crash.
Driver inattention is listed as a possible contributing factor.
